when he should have Csccndcd the i'm.

bilious Of distinction as a monarch, and
being something Of a bully in disposition,
II is feared he will be a disturber of the
general peace OF the continent. Bismarck is

besides $4,000 borrowed to pay the
January and July interest, will fall short
rs much more the coming year, making q
total deficit of $780, 900. This Is caused by
the redemption Of the Bank Of
Tennessee notes, which should have
been provided for by the Legisla-
ture. This is not a creditable state
of affairs. It is not at all crcditable to a
State that makes so loud and frequent
proclamation Of its 'inexhaustiblc re-
sources" Of cts growth and prosperity"
and its increase Of population" that it
must confess a deficit in its finances. But
this is just what might be expected rs the

launched the State in the long and danger
Gus discussion Of the payment OF the State
debt, which ended 50 discreditably. Ours
has been a financial policy composed Of

sire, in which parsimony was made to dis
place economy and at any risk to the good
name and credit of the State, 50 that per-

LONDON, Oct. IA deputation OF UNI
employed w%orkingmen went to the Man
sion house today and demanded that they
be supplied with work. The board Of
aldermen referred them to the work-house.
When the deputation reported the result
of their mission to those who had sent
them, the mob became infuriated and are
now marching toward the city. They are
surrounded by a force of police. The mob
proceeded without committing any overt
act until the Strand was reached, when
they turned upon the police and attacked
them with stones. The police charged
upon the crowd and scattered them, capt
uring a number OF banners. The mob
then returned to Trafalgar square, where
several OF the leaders made speeches which
had the effect Of exciting the crowds.
The police again made n charge and after
some distance succeeded in clearing the
square. After n time the mob, which had
now gained some reinforcements, attempt
ed TO again enter the square, but after q
general fight they were prevented from
doing 40 by the police. Several policemen
were injured. Nine arrests were made.
